“My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our Kintsugi class, led by Miyoko. Miyoko was extremely knowledgeable, talented and patient as she walked us through all of the steps to create a lovely Kintsugi piece by the end of the class. It was really relaxing focusing on the beautiful piece of art I was making, and very satisfying at the end of the class! I'm very happy with my piece and inspired to come back to make another piece or try one of their other workshops.”
“Jun-san’s passion and skill for kintsugi makes for a thorough and educational workshop! Highly recommend this class for anyone who loves crafts, learning or Japanese culture!”
“One of the best workshops to attend ! Jun-san and his wife are lovely people, they make you feel very welcome and comfortable, they share their knowledge and craft of kintsugi with you and you end up with a beautifil plate you can show off at home. I definitely recommend !”
“One of the most well-considered and engaging classes I've ever taken, so thoughtfully prepared. Jun truly cares about helping students learn the craft and philosophy of kintsugi with a hands-on and holistic approach, including expert insights on it's history and surrounding culture...plus it's role as a metaphor for our journey in life.”
“Great class! Loved learning about the history and meaning behind the art form! Everything was well explained and lots of fun with a beautiful plate to take home!”
“This class was amazing. Run by such a sweet husband and wife team who have such a passion for their craft. The class was like a little taste of Japan.”
“I really enjoyed the process of learning Modern Kintsugi. Jun explained not only the process of repairing broken china, but also the history and philosophy of this ancient practice. He was a very patient teacher and gave me a lot of encouragement. I now feel confident to repair my own pieces and I would recommend this workshop to anyone who is curious about how to take something broken and make it beautiful again.”
“A modern approach to an ancient art, repairing loved ceramic pieces and reverencing imperfection as the human condition.
It was delightful fun and very satisfying. Jun san is a polished and encouraging teacher .
I hope to do further classes to extend my skills.”
